A Taste of France at Buena Vista Bistro

The owner, veteran Chef Claude Postel, moved to Miami after opening a series of successful restaurants and pâtisseries in Montreal. Within months he opened what soon became the neighborhood spot where the décor is simple—a laidback, 1950s-style not distracting from the flavors that the kitchen churns out everyday.
From the Miami Herald:
Sure bets include a fine meaty rib-eye steak and the luscious duck confit, a tiny half bird served golden and crisped over layers of thinly sliced buttery potatoes still in their skin and cooked until silky. Potatoes also appear French fried and as a chunky mashed style. Both disappear from plates within minutes. Other sides, like a rough cut ratatouille and gently sautéed spinach, taste like a month in the country.
Entrees: $8-25
Sounds good!

Borderlink etiquette: Please 1) be on time (arriving fashionably late is problematic: busy restaurants have limited table space and, after a grace period, need our vacant seats for other patrons and 2) update your RSVP if you are unable to join us (for potential waitlisters and to allow for an accurate number count for final table reservations usually made the day before the event).
